This is "Puttin' on the ritz" which came from a batch of open pollinated hybrid perpetual and unknown ht seed. The growth is fairly upright and the stems support the flowers quite well. The buds have more of a vase shape that reminds me of a tulip. It wants to produce flushes regularly and the fragrance has developed a lot stronger citrus notes this season.

This is the third season for my op seedling "Margaret" from julia child. It has the bushy form of a floribunda and it sets blooms both singularly and in clusters. the flowers have more a ruffled look to them compared to julia child. The colour starts off as a deep saturated yellow and then fades to a creamy white shade. it has a moderate sweet fragrance similar to julia childs.

Gardennut - Great job!!!! I love seeing brand new creations...how exciting!! The last picture of Margaret really shows the ruffled petal look! It's a really lovely rose!! Did you name it after someone you know?
